Satellite map
Satellite map shows the Earth's surface as it really looks like. The above map is based on satellite images taken on July 2004. This satellite map of Kanawha County is meant for illustration purposes only. For more detailed maps based on newer satellite and aerial images switch to a detailed map view.
Hillshading is used to create a three-dimensional effect that provides a sense of land relief. Shadows drawn on a map simulate the effects of sunlight falling across the surface of the landscape.
Plate Carree map projection
A map projection is a way how to transform points on a Earth to points on a map. This 3D map uses Plate Carree projection, a simple variant of the equidistant cylindrical projection originated in the ancient times. The parallels and meridians are equally spaced, they together form equally sized squares over the entire world map.
Using simple grid, where each cell has the same size and shape, brings in significant benefits. For comparison, the detailed maps of Kanawha County use Mercator projection instead. The Mercator projection preserves the shapes and angles of small areas better, but on the other hand, it significantly distorts the size of areas.
